The First 70 is a brilliant project documenting California's plan to close one quarter of their 278 state parks. A closure list that includes thousands of acres of park land, recreation areas, wildlife reserves, and 50% of the state's historic parks. A monumental catastrophe.

The film navigates throughout California visiting as many of the parks as possible in an effort to raise awareness.

A topic dear to the Superbeast savage spirit.

The First 70 is an inspiring journey through California to visit the majestic state parks slated to close due to budget cuts. Experience the beauty and history that may be lost forever, and meet the people who are working to preserve the places they love for everyone to enjoy.
